My girlfriend made chocolate truffles last night

[ZenLefty]

My job is to not eat them. :( :( :(

They're all in the fridge right now. Approximately 18 feet, 2 inches away from where I'm sitting. Middle shelf, next to the tortillas. The green colored tupperware.

Must...pretend...they...are...not...there...

There's also puppy chow (chocolate covered crispix) in the house. Light, crunchy, man you could just sit there and eat a whole bowlful of it and not even know it! My job is to not eat them too.

Or the chocolate balls from Sees. Can't eat those; they're for chriiiiistmaaaaaas *sneer*. And the white chocolate peanut butter cups are totally off limits. Can't let our chriiiistmaaaaass guests go hungry now, can we? We must let them stuff themselves with truffles and puppy chow and chocolate balls and whitechocolatepeanutbuttercups before dinner, which means I can't have any of it now.

I can eat the ry krisps. Or the tortilas. There's some bran cereal in the pantry. And tea. I can eat as much tea as I want. O joy that stuff just sounds so wonderful. :pout:

When it comes to snacks, I have incredibly low willpower.

1. you can sing:

"Nobody knows the truffles I've seen..."

5. But she'll know the truffles I've eaten.

:(

2. Wait...hang on a second...

She made these things for your guests, but did not make extra for you to snack on. She just tortured you like that? How rude!

Edit - um, can you convince her that I'm a guest who just can't make it, but would really like some truffles? :D

6. I'll mail you some

And if you get an empty envelope with chocolate fingerprints on it, well, you know what happened. :9

Nope. I can't even type that with a straight face.

4. most definitely

An exercise in learning to deny your desires - the cause of all suffering.

She is truly a Zen Master.

[ZenLefty]

8. Yes, I am definitely suffering here

Now that I've learned the lesson, I should be rewarded with a truffle.

9. try grabbing it from my open palm!

Grasshopper, the pebble is a truffle! The butterfly awakens in the penalty box of life, only to tie 3-3 in OT! Keep your truffle on the ice!

That is your ZenTruffleRiddle of the day.
